wow. mall. cool.

Pain level: 5
Dislocations so far today: right shoulder once, left index finger once
Subluxations so far today: right shoulder a few times, left shoulder once
Meds: naproxen, hardcore dose.
Major complaint: morning stiffness, back still sore

I think I did pretty damn well today.  Back muscles still feel a little pulled, but my two days without PT has really helped that.  I've been sleeping well even without taking any more of those meds.  And I walked around the mall today. (!!!)  I'm not sure I remember the last time I walked around the mall on my own.  It's been a few years, I'd bet.  I'm sore now and on the cane, but I'm happy I pushed myself to walk a bit more than is usual for me.  I'll likely start back in on my PT today unless M lectures me to take one more day off just in case. 

Also, talked to my mom today, and it turns out she also has a prolapse.  So that's three generations (me, my mom, and my grandmother), three prolapses, and three different organ systems.  Wow.  Anyone else still trying to figure out which side my EDS came from?  Yeah, me either.
